Not cancelled, The Last Resort should be out very soon I would guess.

I'm also eagerly waiting for the release of the next Wallace & Gromit episodes on XBLA.
The Wii already has the second episode of Tales of Monkey Island.

From a commercial point of view I can understand this move by Telltale. The popular Monkey Island series will lead to a larger income, than the not so popular Wallace & Gromit series.

But as a big Wallace & Gromit fan I'm really angry, that there is not even an official announcement by Telltale/Microsoft if/when we can expect the release of the last 3 WG episodes.

Well, a couple weeks ago Major Nelson said episode 2 would be going up, and then retracted it after TTG contacted him I guess. So it seems like it will be really soon, but who knows when?

Gibbeynator · 09/27/2009, 12:02 pm

Telltale has no control over the release of the XBLA episodes. Microsoft does, and I'm guessing since the first episode didn't go over so well, they're going to push out a few high profile money makers and get around to The Last Resort whenever.

@ Gibbeynator

Yes, that's what I also think. But it is really sad, that games like
ION Assault, The Warrios:Street Brawl or Zombie Apocalypse are nowadays more popular than an adventure game like W&G.

Armand1880 · 09/28/2009, 05:34 am

Wait a minute - XBLA only has 1 episode of Wallace and Gromit available? Wow...I didn't know that.
One more reason why I'll always love PC gaming best.

tastefulmrship · 09/29/2009, 10:11 pm

This thread has a link to some possible extra info... it's just a shame that our superb leaders couldn't tell us directly. I guess Chimpanzee Archipelago is the #1 son, afterall!

Rather Dashing · 09/30/2009, 08:31 am

Oh, wow. I thought at least episode TWO was out on XBLA.

...

I am SO glad that PC releases weren't held back by the console dates like they were for SBCG4AP. I guess this is the sort of thing you get when you're dealing with a monolithic, uncaring middleman.

City Of Delusion · 09/30/2009, 10:00 am

I heard it was the Summer of Arcade's fault. Either way, blame Microsoft.

zmally · 10/01/2009, 02:48 pm

Well it's nearly the winter of arcade...

fake0815 · 10/03/2009, 03:57 am

Perhaps they meant summer of arcade 2010.

Or we get now all episodes in one package, like the first season of Sam & Max.
That would be awesome.

Jedi27 · 10/03/2009, 05:14 am

The achievements for Last Resort have been up on www.xbox360achievements.org for months now, so clearly the XBLA version has been finished and ready to release for a while.

It would be nice if someone from TTG could shed some light as to what's going on with it. Major Nelson announced it as coming out a few weeks ago, and then said it was removed at the last minute.

Who knows, maybe Microsoft would rather release Sam&Max: Beyond Time and Space first? Either way this situation has been very aggravating.

At least I've had ToMI to please my adventure gaming fix, but I want the rest of W&G already!

fake0815 · 10/03/2009, 06:06 am

Yes, some comment/announcement from TTG would be very nice.

Hey, Ion Assault is actually quite fun!

I'm just waiting for the release of S&M Season

Ok, now the achievements for Muzzled are up, and we STILL have no idea when Last Resort is coming out. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed and hope that this is a sign that the remaining episodes will come out in quick succession (or better yet, all at once) but, I'll be realistic and assume that Microsoft will just screw us over again.

Hey TTG, anytime you guys feel like telling us what the hell is going on with W&G on XBLA is more than welcome.

fake0815 · 10/05/2009, 06:41 am

I want a Telltale Games XBLA Wednesday, with 3 games:

W&G Ep.2
W&G Ep.3
Sam and Max Season 2

Please make it happen.

Highly unlikely, since they'd be competing (and pretty severely) with themselves for customers' dollars.

nikasaur · 10/05/2009, 11:13 am

Keep an eye on our blog and when we know for sure, you'll know. Might have an announcement coming up soonish?

fake0815 · 10/05/2009, 01:44 pm

That sounds promising.
